one of two - when they're falling lyrics

you can still see the scar line, he says, where her nails caught his chest
you can still see the scar line, he says, as for the rest you can probably guess
he says, i’ll tell you something, he says, and let’s go of a single tear
its narrow trail glistens on his face and disappears into his beard
he says, i was just a branch to break my back to break her fall
and he flexes empty hands, echoes bouncing off the wall
don’t catch them when they’re falling
let them fall right to the ground
don’t catch thеm when they’re falling
pick thеm up when they’re lying down
his attention floats back and forth then stays on a spot on the dusty floor
his reflection stares back from the blade of an old knife stuck in the boards
he mumbles how he’d have lost his hand, how he’d have bled till his veins were dry
and his memories all trickle out like sand through the holes in his quiet lies
he says who was i to stand in the way when someone’d made their call?
and he clenches empty hands, delusions bouncing off the wall
don’t catch them when they’re falling
let them fall right to the ground
don’t catch them when they’re falling
pick them up when they’re lying down

in the cold, cobwebbed archives of his head, there’s a rattling of hidden drawers
as everyone that he has ever met falls and breaks and banks and soars
he shuts his eyes under desperate, knitted brows, and his lips form a silent no
as the shadow of his free+falling house dims an open grave below
he says, everything i am, i have kept safe within these halls
and his aching, empty hands pound tired fists into the wall
don’t catch them when they’re falling
let them fall right to the ground
don’t catch them when they’re falling
pick them up when they’re lying down

don’t catch them when they’re falling
let them smash right to the ground
don’t catch them when they’re falling
pick them up when they’re lying down
